Conway's lawyers and union busters were at the ULX terminal trying to get statements from non supportive drivers to say that they were harassed or intimidated during the campaign. This is bullshit!! It's the same bullshit that they did in Laredo. It's time for us to stand up and punch our company in the gut !!! We should all walk the fuck out and show Conway who has the power!
Paul was having his goons spread the rumor that they were going to close down LX because we voted union. Bullshit ! Paul, you know damn well your breaking the law.
Conway management, we know now that WE have the power, we will win this!
Conway is good at dirty tricks, would you expect anything less?
ReplyDeleteULX,you now have 1.4 million members in your corner.
More terminals to follow soon.
That's right the brotherhood got your back teamsters yes !!! Lets do this one chance to make a stand now is the time never again union yes
ReplyDeleteThat's right Conway we don't believe your BS let me guess their going to talk about that San Francisco terminal they shut down years ago like they have any nuts that terminal wasn't need at that time we know it and they know it's not Conway employees now Greg you have to deal with the teamster who have the power now. !!!
ReplyDeleteWe have just begun to fight !!! UNION YES
ReplyDeleteI'm really proud of ULX, I'm a CSR in GEORGIA and we have seen how you guys STAYED STRONG! Just wanted to add to stay focus, refer to the new site often as needed,, stay informed, watch each others back & keep your cell phones handy (CAPTURE PICS & STATEMENTS IF POSSIBLE). For all future CON-WAY UNION TERMINALS TO COME expect this kind of behavior like PAUL STYERS is displaying. Some manager, fom, or fos will really be caught in the act of breaking the law trust me I can see it coming and they won"t be able to deny it! Let's keep pushing on to our next VICTORY, everyone who's reading this please know that STRENGTH comes in NUMBERS and we can see our numbers of Victories increasing. Thanks to all the AWESOME CREATORS OF THE WEB SITES. We are increasing our VICTORIES because you have taken the time to put together such important web sites and YES YOU ARE REALLY DOING YOUR PART! (Your statement from you BLOGS. Thanks again LAREDO for leading the way! Con-Way employees be empowered, VOTE UNION YES we are ONE and we can DO THIS TOGETHER. .VOTE YES!
ReplyDeleteP.S. SQUASHING FEAR ONE DAY AT A TIME!
LET'S ALL CALL OUT SICK FOR 1 DAY NATION WIDE AND LET SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
ReplyDeleteEven if they did cheak around every ltl trucking company is hiring company s are having trouble finding drivers plus they will get back pay bring it on
ReplyDeleteEven if they did cheak around every ltl trucking company is hiring company s are having trouble finding drivers plus they will get back pay bring it on
ReplyDeleteI say, pick the day to stop and we stop
ReplyDeleteThat morning when ULX won , they had a meeting and said that they are going to replace all drivers at ULA ONE BY ONE whether they voted union or not , trust me I work in the office and I believe what they are doing is not fair.
ReplyDeleteGo ahead and call off sick or walk off, that would be great.
ReplyDeleteWhat a surprise conway not following the rules and doing whatever they want no integrity this is why we need representation.
ReplyDeleteThis is what con any way is probably behind closed doors take away Lowes put con-way U1TV - Union Busting 101-"The Role of Supervisors…: http://youtu.be/So_Fv4a9EPo
ReplyDeletePeople! Don't buy into the bullshit they are feeding us. Stay strong, level headed, and do your best at work. It's gonna be a long road to a contract. The busters and management want us to be angry and chaotic. Why? Because chaos disrupts unity. Chaos makes good people make poor choices. Chaos reaps fear. They are counting on this to divide us. Sure I'm pissed off, but I go about my day as normal positive and ready to work hard. If management messes with you, just remember three things. (Yes sir, No sir, and I love this fucking company!) That will be enough to get us where we want to be. No need to walk out. We don't need to punch the company in the gut, although it would feel good. We will do better than that. When we succeed in 51% of the service centers nationwide and the whole enchilada goes Teamsters we will have cut the head off of the snake. When that days comes, and it will. Then instead of us getting replaced one by one, we can start replacing them one by one. Stay cool. Don't quit or get fired before it gets good.
ReplyDeleteSo today I found out one of the reasons ULA didnt win.It wasnt just the dock workers(like most want to blame) but it may have been a language barrier too.Seems like some drivers weren't sure of what was goin on and what the union stood for and they where affraid of what would happen to them if they where seen talking about the union or union reps.So ill say it again for us to unite and have all people join the cause to change conway we must help educate or translate what it means to be in a union,And this isn't to say people are dumb or stupid.But when every thing is happening so fast and you dont understand whats goin on, its a scary thing.But when you have someone to help you see things in a more calm and clear way things become less scary.I for one admit that when i dont understand things i feel like im overwhelmed but when some helps explain things sure makes things easier.So please people lets help those who might need help.Once where all on the same marked target we should have no trouble hitting it.LETS REMEMBER THE TARGET IS TO CHANGE CONWAY FOR A BETTER FUTURE FOR EVERYONE NOW AND YEARS TO COME.How do we change conway?By UNITING at the POLLS AND VOTING YES TO THE UNION.
ReplyDeletePS.Hows Patric doin at ULA?is he still walking around with a chip on his shoulder?Because seems like Nichols chip has been knocked off.I wonder if all the complaints in this site had something to do with that?UNITY SURE MAKES A DIFFERENCE.
Im at a terminal were 70 percent are no and you are a liar and the teamsters are liars, really how do you deal with that , these people will not even listen to reason , and the raise well they believe its all conway and they really care i say bull anyway any ideas how to deal with these people ?
ReplyDeleteConway drivers from every terminal should ask their manager if he would post the federal law poster from NLRB in front other drivers in a meeting setting. The will say it's not conway policy and they don't have to post it by law. At this point we can ask the manager why is it you would not want the drivers the federal law. We as drivers need to know this law because if we don't pay attention the union busters and conway management will continue to break the law. This is a must, if you can film the manager response that would be better.
ReplyDeleteP.S. That line was supposed to read,
ReplyDeleteAt this point we can ask the manager why is it you would not want the drivers to know the law.
Why am I not surprise? I just hope that one of those "DSR" don't fall into that trap. I can respect anyone for not wanting the union. But not a Rat.
ReplyDeleteThis goes to the guy who's location is 70% no to the union.We must work in the same location because,Ive posted before when everyone was pointing fingers at the dock workers.Ive said that drivers who been at conway for many years where brain washed by the raise,I hear the same thing.Oh its a great raise conway really cares about its drivers.So i point out,Is that why they cut the pay,benefits,pension and fired hundreds of people about 8years ago.because supposedly the company was goin threw a hard time.But they gave John lebri 5million signing bonus and they spent millions and millions on a race truck and car.not only that they spent over 15million on upgrading their systems,Which by the way failed.Did anyone of us have a say about it?when i spoke out about all of this is,Im told its trial and error.Yes, sure is because we the workers pay for it and conway get a fat tax write off.So im i lying about this?Now about the union.The problem with the union isnt the people in the teamsters corporation.Its the members them selves.Because we as members are the once that make the contracts with the company.thats why in texas their using the UPS contract as a model,It doesnt mean that conway and the Employees are goin to follow the UPS contract.We the members agree to what we want from the company.If the unions are so bad I wonder why The police,fire dept,bus drivers,bridge workers,city workers,actors,writers and athletes have union?I think most of them make a pretty good living with good benefits,and the company cant just take when ever they want.If you listen to the new or watch the news you can see where the company tries to cut something on the workers but when the workers go to there union then the union steps in and fights for the members.But it starts out with the members.So again im i lying about this too?I kinda remember in the late 90s didnt baseball players go on union strike because they wanted to be paid more millions?How that work out for them?.But if conway goes nation wide teamsters.Mayb we should kick out the ones that vote no,Since they wont like better benefits and condition at conway.That would mean the location i work for will be hiring 70% of a new work force.Again just my opinion.
ReplyDeleteHey Greg,for your trip to Chicagoland this Friday will you be flying first class or are you going to practice LEAN and drive!!!!
ReplyDeleteGreg will probably be arriving in the party truck. You know the one they paid millions for (instead of buying new hand helds) and that's loaded with alcoholic beverages, has caterers and guess what? He will bringing lots of PIZZA & CHEWING GUM! You know it's the little things that counts. CHICAGO WELCOME GREG & HIS ESCORTS WITH BIG SIGNS READING YES TO UNION THEN TELL HIM TO ROLL OUT!!!!! VOTE UNION YES
DeleteFirst class!!! Try a Private Plane!!

Man i use to see so much activity in this site from all around the locations,Now seems like either poeple got scared or paid off by Con-Way.I hope people aren't getting cold feet about voting yes.Because divided we fall United we become Teamsters.But when my chance comes around to voting,You guys know what im goin to do?IM goin to go get some Real Pizza from chucky cheese and paint a big YES on the box.Go vote a BIG OH HELL YEAH TO BECOMING A BROTHER TO THE UNION.THEN GO EAT MY CHUCKY CHEESE PIZZA WITH A SMILE.I THINK ILL DESERVE SOMETHING BETTER THAN WHAT Con-Way gives out.Im tired of bull shit.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry people are in the thinking for yourself mode right now. I've had many drivers come up to me today and show me the new site, I already knew about it but I was so happy to see the guys reading the information and really thinking about THEIR FUTURE NOT anyone else's. CSR her in GEORGIA. ..I'm getting the impression it's the quite before the storm. NO I don't think they are as scared as before this new site is making the guys at my terminal say: AND WHAT ELSE HAS CON-WAY LIED TO US ABOUT? I FEEL THAT SITE IS WHAT'S GOING TO MAKE THE DIFFERENCE TO BECOMING A UNION RUN COMPANY! KEEP VOTING YES TO UNION!!!! AGAIN, TO THE CREATOR WE THANK YOU FOR THE TIME & DEDICATION YOU HAVE SHOWN. I CAN TELL YOU REALLY CARE ABOUT THE EMPLOYEES @ CON-WAY!
DeleteHey Con-Way brothers and sisters does the fedex rate look familiar?????
ReplyDelete-----A U.P.S parcel driver total scale $33 an hour for labor, plus they also get $9 an hour for the pension plan and last $7 an hour for health and welfare, so when they retired, they have medical retirement.
Add all together, is $49 an hour…
A FedEx courier driver total scale $24 an hour for labor, plus 31 cent an hour for the pension plan and last no medical retirement when they retired.
Add all together, is $24.31 an hour… minus 3% .81 cent an hour for your contribution to 401k=$23.50---This rate was from a few years ago.We sure are smart to keep the union out.HUH?Way to go Laredo TX.you knew when your getting fucked.
Maybe we should call share holders and let them know how conway is mis spending millions on traveling and union busters affecting our bottom line. I bet that we won't get a bonus but they will.
ReplyDelete27.10 is nice but I'd rather have 24.50 with good medical pension job security and not having my rights violated every day with this drive cam nonsense.
ReplyDeleteIm sure investors already speculating Conway are abusing employees. The troubles are reflecting on stock. NasDaq reported Conway had a 6% drop today or close to $2.60 drop per share. And for those who think its been quiet and on this blog nothing to worry about just spending more time with local teamsters. Go MIDWEST XCG XGH
ReplyDeleteGrasp the concept that with no pension or health care benefits after retirement you will not be able to cover monthly bills. Take ten minutes and add up what it takes to keep your home operating, calculate with expectation home and vehicles are paid off. Do the math off of social security income. Wont last a month unless pitching a tent sounds good. With a pension we wont have to lose everything we have worked so hard for. Vote Yes!! XNC
ReplyDeleteI want to remind everyone what a great company it used to be before they fuck it all up. I worked with Emery worldwide airlines we were part of CNF before they changed their name to Con-way Inc. when I started with Emery first day I got hired I got my benefits not 3 months not 1 year first day! How much did I pay for my benefits a week 0 they were free 10 sick days a year vacation not pto. Company paid pension no need for a union then CNF took care of their employees. 2006 what the fuck happened they changed their name to Con-Way Inc they lost their way down hill from there on start taking from the people that made your company and take and take and take till you can't take no more and people get feed up and piss the fuck off!!! Now 2014 there's a need for a UNION NOW! It takes the treat off union and guess what from having no money to giving the biggest raise in company history. DON'T BE FOUL BY THAT ALL THEY'RE ONLY GIVEN US JUST A LITTLE PART OF WHAT THEY BEEN STEALING FROM US FOR YEARS DON'T BE FOOLED THE RAISE IS JUST TO STOP THE MOMENTUM OF THE UNION AND IF THEY WIN THEN IS BACK TO BISNESS TAKE AND TAKE AND TAKE SOME MORE PLEASE BROTHERS AND SISTERS IF WE DON'T ORGANIZED IT'S ONLY GONNA GET WORST.....VOTE YES!!!!
ReplyDeleteHEY GUYS TALK TO A CONWAY WORKER WHO HAS RETIRED FROM SOMEWHERE ELSE OR FROM THE MILITARY. ASK HOW DOES IT FEEL TO HAVE A PENSION CHECK IN THEIR HOUSEHOLD EVERY MONTH. ASK THEM HOW DOES IT FEELS TO WORK BECAUSE THEY WANT TO AND NOT BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO. 401K IS NOT THE SAME AS A PENSION GUYS DO YOUR HOMEWORK PLEASE! DON'T LET THIS OPPORTUNITY PASS YOU BY, WE ARE ON THE RIGHT TRACK..VOTE YES FOR UNION AND OH IT WON'T BE PLEASANT STILL HAVING WORK WHEN YOU ARE UP IN AGE.....THINK ABOUT IT, LIVING OUT OF A PIZZA BOX AND COUNTING THOSE PENNIES GETS OLD! MAKE THE BEST DECISION THAT IS RIGHT FOR YOU NOT FOR SOMEONE ELSE WHO'S SCARED AND WON'T THINGS TO STAY AS THEY ARE...GETTING NO PENSION, OR BETTER BENEFITS. WHEN SOMEONE SAYS NO TO UNION ASK THEM CAN I COME LIVE WITH YOU WHEN I RETIRE.
DeleteGood luck
ReplyDeleteSan Jose needs and wants a union
San jose,Santa Rosa,Salinas,Hayward and the other locations in the bay Area need to Get the UNION in .You guys area getting SCREWED Big time by Con-Way and their's nothing you guys can do about now.I seen how Con-way is hoping you don't unite because if Cali goes union that means they loose the hold on other location.Because cali has tough regulation and if they can get threw in Cali the otherStates will fall easier.That's why they been Spending a lot of money and throwing a lot of lies here in Cali.So don't fall for there bull shit .Let's unite and become a Strong Team.VOTE UNION
ReplyDeleteTo that DSR, From San Jose. Yes Not only San Jose Needs the union all of Conway Needs union. But You can also start. Get with Your Local Teamsters or go to Teamster.org and get the ball rolling. don't just wait to see what happens. Make it happen! that goes to every DSR in all Conway Terminals. Yeah I know it can be scary but it is way more scary to be at the mercy of the company.
ReplyDeleteWell said my EDUCATED brother. You need get started. Don't wait for someone else to do it. I made 1 phone call a month ago and now over half of our drivers are signed. One person CAN make a difference.
DeleteSpent most of my haloween at usb trick or treating for empties no pups no long boxes we already stole every purchase trailer in the yard guess they spent all their money on the union busters.
ReplyDeleteDOES ANYONE KNOW HOW MUCH MONEY ANN ARBOR HAS WASTED SINCE THE LEAN PHILOSOPHY STARTED? WAIT BEFORE LEAN WE HAD ALL THE DIFFERENT COLOR BELTS PROGRAM & THE SIGMA...BLAH, BLAH, BLAH. WHO REALLY GIVES A DAMN?WELL I WISH I KNEW THE TOTAL COST FOR ALL THOSE DAMN NONSENSE PROGRAMS.
DeleteTHE ONLY THING I NOTICED WAS THEIR ATTITUDES OF WE'RE MORE IMPORTANT & SMARTER THAN YOU GUYS. HERE'S MY POINT, WITH ALL THOSE PROGRAMS THEY CREATE ,THEY CUT OFF EVERYTHING WE HAD (PENSION, BETTER HEALTH PLAN, TWICE A YEAR ICP BONUSES, VACATION TIME, HAND HELDS & ON & ON). ALL BECAUSE THE GREEDY, THUGS, & LIARS HAVE MONEY TO WASTE ON THEIR OWN SELF INTERESTS. JUST THINK OF WHAT OUR PENSION WOULD HAVE BEEN IF IT WASN'T STOPPED. NOW THEY STAY UP SCRATCHING THEIR HEADS THINKING ON HOW TO STOP THE UNION MOVEMENT & KEEP THE WASTEFUL SPENDING GOING. WE HAVE THE POWER TO STOP THIS BEHAVIOR. VOTE YES TO UNION! BECAUSE REALLY GUYS, THESE INSECURE IDIOTS WILL NOT CHANGE THEY ONLY MULTIPLY (LOOK AT THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE WE CALL MANAGERS IN OUR SERVICE CENTERS NOW!!!!) VOTE YES TO UNION, WE OWE TO OURSELVES & OUR FAMILIES.
HERE IN GEORGIA FOR YR 2015 OUR TERMINAL WILL BE HAVING MORE START TIMES AND LESS UNASSIGN SLOTS. HERE COME THE BRIBES MGMT IS GOING THE LET'S BE FAIR ROUTE. WHY COULDN'T THEY DO THIS BEFORE? THEY STAY SHUT UP BEHIND CLOSE DOORS 3/4 OF THE DAY ON CONFERENCE CALLS PLOTTING THEIR NEXT MOVE ON HOW TO KEEP THE SOUTH ON LOCK DOWN. HERE'S MY QUESTION, YOUR OFFERING EVERYTHING BUT PENSION, BETTER HEALTH PKG. , & RETROACTIVE BACK PAY FOR THE RAISE WE ARE SUPPOSEDLY BE GETTING AMOUNG OTHER THINGS. VOTE UNION YES, STOP PLAYING AROUND THEY ARE STILL PLOTTING ON HOW TO KEEP THOSE BONUSES COMING INTO THEIR POCKETS. DON'T SETTLE FOR THE CHEAP THOUGHTLESS SOLUTIONS THEY ARE COMING UP WITH. VOTE UNION YES TO CLEAN HOUSE IN ANN ARBOR WITH ALL THEIR SMART ASS DUMB IDEAS BECAUSE WE CAN SEE RIGHT THROUGH THEM. GO BACK TO YOUR CONFERENCE CALLS & COME BACK WITH YOUR NEXT BRIGHT IDEAS! ONTO UNION LAND, THE SOUTH WILL RISE AGAIN!
ReplyDeleteUSB is a joke dispatch is like the three stooges they don't know what their doing just blame the drivers the closer to the terminal the worst service they give all they know how to do is say HIT THE DOCK then they have safety CLOWNS running around fabricating events too many fos and FOM over paid under work cover for each other the circus is leaving town PAT NOW THEIRS A NEW SHERIFF LOCAL 63 Teamsters and were voting YES
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteUSB yard looks like the rail yard England werner Trans America don't even know who I work for anymore they send me out on a route with a crest trailer with 10 deliveries and pickups
ReplyDeleteThey spent Millions and Millions.But they dont care because it comes out of the workers wages.But if their Ideas dont work its ok because,Ill say it AGAIN.ITS A BIG TAX WRITE OFF for them.So they get a return.Anyone know where the IRS gets the money from to give Con-Way the return?Look at your pay check.See where it says with held.So Con-Way never looses.But we do.So its our turn to get something.Lets vote YES.
ReplyDeleteUSB that's right big dog and pony show that's Conway s big top circus bunch of clowns running the place I'm voting big YES UNION NOW AND TAKING IT IN A CONTRACT
ReplyDeleteYeah no more taping the time clock at USB forcing drivers to work the dock get your act together we've had enough of management at USB were getting a contract after all we know how to do our jobs take note Greg your management at USB is wasting money too many FOS & FOM
ReplyDeleteDon't forget the regional mgrs do your job that's how it got to this point they all cover for each other and come down on us easy to blame the employees you see them going to lunch in groups who's else is paying for their lunch all of us nobody's keeping track of how long their lunch breaks are ?? We need our own contract to protect our jobs pay benifts otherwise they will waste it on theirselves
ReplyDeleteHow did Greg visit to Chicagoland go on Friday??
ReplyDeleteTypical conway bullshit. Praising everyone's safety and hard work, trying to justify cutting our pensions and everything else they took. He saved the union bashing for his last 10 minutes of his speech. They are trying damage control because they know the movement is strong in Chicagoland. I guess they don't want to divorce 9 terminals. That's a lot of alimony
DeleteIt's funny how Greg trying to justify how they had to cut our pension and benefits but they never cut their big fat salaries and big fat bonus.
DeleteDID GREG SAY ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT A GREAT TIME THEY HAVE IN THE PARTY TRUCK? OR HOW HOW THEY LOVE CREATING STUPID PROGRAMS, SIGMA, LEAN AND SO MANY MORE. THEY REALLY GET ME WHEN THEY DO THE PROMOTION EMAILS... AND SO AND SO WAS ON THE HASTE MAKES TEAM OR WHATEVER THE HELL IT WAS, & SIGMA TEAM. WHEN THEY SAY THOSE PROGRAMS YOU KNOW ITS ONE OF THOSE HEAD STRONG TOY SOLDIER FLUNKIES COMING YOUR WAY. THEY JUST LOVE TO WRITE PEOPLE UP AND FAX IT TO ANN ARBOR (SEE WHAT A GOOD BOY I AM, I CAN DO 20 WRITE UPS A DAY). MOST OF THE ASS KISSERS THEY NEVER PROMOTE OUT OF THE SMALL TERMINALS ANYWAY DUMB ASSES. .GREG LOVES THE BRAINWASHING TECHNIQUE ON HIS TOY SOLDIERS AS WELL. GREG CAN NEVER JUSTIFY THE ACTIONS FOR CUTTING PENSION, HAVING A COMPETITIVE HEALTH CARE PKG, NOT GIVING OT OVER 8 HOURS, CUTTING VACATION TIME & CONTINUOUS ABUSIVE, HARASSING BEHAVIOR BY MGMT. HELL, HE CANT EVEN JUSTIFY FOR BEING A CONWAY TRUCK DEALER AND OUR GUYS STILL HAVE THE OLD TORN UP FLEETS. WELL I GUESS HE CAN, ALL OF THESE ARE PAID BY US THE EMPLOYEES DON'T YOU JUST LOVE GUYS PAYING THOSE TAXES WHILE THEY ENJOY THEMSELVES. VOTE UNION YES TERMINALS TO END THIS NIGHTMARE ONCE AND FOR ALL!
DeleteDONT BE SCARED PEOPLE! LET'S GET A SLICE OF THE PIE TOO!.
It's funny how Greg all ways start his prerecorded message with I rather be at the service center's with you guys in person. 4 years never seen this clown in my service center I guess he comes in on Sundays.
ReplyDeleteEvery Con-way employee must see this utube video. ... The Decline of Unions: Is Labor Law to Blame?: http://youtu.be/WBrSuBt5T6c
ReplyDeleteReading trucking boards I hear the president threatened to re-route freight XDE, it was also threatend at XAU on Friday, BULLSHIT!!!! They may try, but it wouldnt work. This is a new time..high demand for drivers and an economy that is starting to come around..so alot more freight. These Fucks sit around all day practicing these power points----Just like they listen to us put it one ear and out the other......STAY FOCUSED!!!!
ReplyDeleteYes excellent labor law video need to see its a battle need to keep yourself informed
ReplyDeleteAt XAU on friday the teamsters paid a little visit. Every single night sub-svc park across the street and along the road,but county and local police departments kicked these guys out from both areas. I see the game there playing...I have a phone too, so Aurora start telling your sub-svc guys (if they speak english) they will have to go to the nearest truck stop....40 miles down the fuckin road, also tell em they better throw out there 2nd log book. We will see how well your freight moves from here on out!!!!!

JUST IN CASE SOME OF YOU THINK Con-Way ISN'T MAKING MONEY AND THATS WHY WE SHOULD TAKE CUTS IN OUR WAGES AND BENEFITS....
ReplyDelete---Douglas W. Stotlar - Chief Executive Officer, President and Director
Thanks, Pat. Good morning. On the call today, I'm joined by members of our senior leadership team, including Con-way's CFO, Steve Bruffett; Con-way Freight President, Greg Lehmkuhl; Menlo Logistics President, Bob Bianco; and Con-way Truckload President, Joe Dagnese. Steve will provide some commentary on our financial picture, and Greg, Bob and Joe will participate in the Q&A portion of the call.
All of our business units delivered improved results in the quarter led by the performance of Con-way Freight, which recorded a more than 50% increase in operating income compared to last year's second quarter. In conjunction with the release of our quarterly results yesterday, we also announced 2 initiatives designed to return meaningful capital to shareholders, along with an increased level of pension funding for 2014.
Regarding the shareholder initiatives, our Board of Directors authorized a $150 million share repurchase program and a 50% increase in our common dividend. Given the progress we have made toward our financial objectives, we have reached the point where we can redeploy a portion of our cash balance to fund these shareholder initiatives while maintaining a strong balance sheet. Steve will provide more detail around these actions during his commentary later in today's call.
Moving to the second quarter's financials. I'll provide an overview of our results. In the second quarter of 2014, Con-way reported consolidated revenues of $1.49 billion compared to $1.38 billion a year ago. On an operating income basis, we earned $102.7 million this quarter compared to $76.3 million last year. Diluted earnings per share were $0.93 compared to $0.75 in the prior year period.
On a non-GAAP basis, earnings per diluted share in the 2014 second quarter were $0.91 compared to $0.68 in last year's second quarter. Non-GAAP items consisted of tax-related adjustments and gains on sale of property from both years, and an increase in reserves for international bad debt in the prior year.------------IF YOU NOTICED THATS ONLY THE 2Q.

ReplyDeleteEmployees at the Red River Army Depot vote in favor of union representation

October 23, 2014
Employees at the Red River Army Depot located near Texarkana, Texas, employed by URS Federal Services, Inc., have voted in favor of union representation in an NLRB-supervised secret ballot election.
Agency personnel from the Fort Worth regional office conducted the election. The tally of ballots, which issued on October 22, 2014, shows 509 employees voted in favor of representation by the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, AFL-CIO, and 329 opposed.
If no objections are filed within 7 days of the tally, the union will be certified as the representative of a bargaining unit of approximately 1,004 regular full and part time employees working at the Red River Army Depot.

ReplyDeleteDirector, (Term: 2014-2016)

Con-Way Inc.
Ann Arbor, Michigan
director of the Detroit Branch of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago.....----That my friends is a 2 year contract.I would love to see what that contract reads like.But How about him work with out a contract.They tell us we dont need a contract????Why does he? or the rest of the slave drivers need contracts.
Where is XDP at. We have a crappy terminal manager here, too. We all get abused here, unless you drop on your knees for him. I want everything back that I was promised when I got hired. I post anonymously because they will retaliate. I think most everyone on this post feels the same way. People need a clear example of what benefits we get with union representation. I'm all in. We need all of Chicagoland in this together. XME, XBV, XAU, XMD, XDP, XEJ, XCG, XGH. These terminals represent the entire Chicagoland operation

ReplyDeleteSo today I got called to the side by management and was told that I needed to stop telling people to read the Employee portal.(I tell my coworkers to look in the portal so they can read how much money Conway makes or what there doin with all the money that we the workers make).I told management Employees should know where to find Information about the company we work for.Ther respond was well not everyone wants to know or should know what the company does.So their you go my Conway Coworkers The thugs and their soldiers want to keep us uneducated so we can't complain of how they spend all the millions and they can controls us.But we are all sick of being treated like where stupid,cowards,or united.But my friends if management is calling me to the side and sending out union busters that means Conway is feeling the pressure from us uniting.So come on everyone lets unite,lets make this BROTHER AND SISTER HOOD NATIONS WIDE.LETS MAKE OUR DREAM REAL OF BEING TREATED LIKE HUMAN BEINGS AND MAKE THEIR NIGHTMARE HAPPEN.BY UNITING AND VOTING YES ALL ACROSS THIS NATION.YOU CAN DO IT MIAMI,MANCHESTER,HARLINGER AND ALL OTHERS WHO WANT TO BE TREATED WITH DIGNITY AND RESPECT.WE ALL NEED A BETTER LIVING,WE EARNED IT,WE MADE Conway what it is.LETS VOTE YES.
